Roxas purred softly in the forest, holding a small infant to her body. She had it wrapped in her wolf jacket and she herself was still too weak to really get up. SHe had been howling for almost an hour now... and her hopes were getting lower. She had sent Ryuuk to get someone, but he hadn't returned. The small boy in her arms was crying and she had little she could do at this point. She had calmed him down twice, but her throat wasn't gonna hold her howling too long. She had been able to get herself near the factory, so she knew that someone would hear her soon.

Running through the forest the sound of my steps echoed through the trees. Looking round frantically I knew something was up by seeing Ryuuk running out at full speed. Closing my eyes while catching my breath I heard my own heart pounding, and, the weak howl in the distance and upon hearing it I ran in that direction immediately, I knew who that was.
Seeing Roxas I ran to her side, kneeling down beside her and seeing her child, "Rox..." it was all I could manage to say, since I was so short on breath from running. I put my hand on the side of her face and smiled at her, breathing heavily I could not say it, but my expression showed how happy I was for her and glad she was alright. I would never say it anyway, but I was also proud of her and thought of her and the newborn as family.

Roxas smiled at Kris as she saw him. She rubbed her cheek against his hand for a moment. she then licked the baby in her arms on the face before hearing ASh and Marty. "Ashlyn," she said softly, trying to stand, only to fail and drop to the grass. She nuzzled Ash heavily, the baby just looking up at the three around him. "How did you guys find me out here so fast?" she asked, trying to lay in Ash's lap to try to soothe her aching muscles.

I smiled, just catching the last of my breath back as Ash and Marty ran over. I realized they must have been close by to get here the same time as I did after running across the forest. As I saw Roxas try to stand I put my arm around her shoulders then, as she could not stand, gently setting her back down “Don’t rush... you need to save your strength alright?”
I looked at the baby with my amethyst eyes, before looking at her, ”I heard you howling across the forest while taking a walk to clear my mind, only just heard you when all fell quiet. I guess the God and Goddess wanted me to find you huh?” I answered her queston with a small smirk. Roxas had told me a little about her beliefs before. I was just using the chance to show I listen and care for what she has to say. I fell quiet, going from a kneel to a sit next to Roxas still my eyes focused on her. Mainly to make her more comfortable.

Roxas looked at him with a slightly started look as he mentioned the God and Goddess. She couldn't help the smile and hugged him around the neck. "Thank you, Kris. I guess they do like to help when not playing jokes on those who live here, ne?" she joked back. THe baby looked up at Kris and reached for him, brown eyes waiting but still with the sense of the wild in him.

I smiled and gently held my arm around Roxas as she hugged me. I knew she was weak from the events that happened not too long ago. I then rubbed my hand up and down her back in a reassuring manner. ”I’m so proud of you Roxanne...” As I said this, the baby in Roxas arms got a hold of the end of my scarf and held it like an extra blanket of sorts. I glanced down and looked at Roxas, still close to her. Having my scarf held if I moved it would take it from him and most likely upset him. Not that I had any problems at all staying close to Roxas.
Since the baby and she seemed to be alright, I was just a keeping them safe so Roxas could rest to get some strength back. I knew she would be a great mother... The knowledge that this child’s parents would raise and teach him well reassured me that he would not turn out to be anything like me. I never told anyone, not even Roxas about that. But I intended to if and when we got to speak privately in the future.
My amethyst eyes looking straight into hers I smirked at her. It was all well staying out here but I had little idea exactly what to do in the grip of her child and her. ”Do you... know where we go from here Roxanne?” I was still worried about her. Only she knew what to do next, and I appreciated we could not push her to do any more than she could handle so soon.

Roxas smiled at the baby as he held Kris's scarf. "Thank you, but I'm not exactly easy to relax, and Ash'll vouch for that." she chuckled. Roxas moved a bit and laid on her stomach, the baby still gripping the scarf softly, Roxas kept the baby near Kris where hte baby could still grip it. She laid her head down softly and shut the eyes of a wolf that were her own. She listened to Kris and smiled. "Don't worry. I just need to rest, and I doubt I'm moving for a bit. If anything, we can try to get inside the factory. It's snowing now, anyways." She said, voice soft with her energy being so low.

I slowly slipped my jacket off my shoulders glancing to Ash as a small grin crossed my face. Not putting any tension on the scarf as I did to be sure the newborn could keep a hold of it. I gently sat close by Roxas side and placed my jacket over her to keep her warm in the weather that seemed not to favour us currently but in no way did that dampen the mood. Gently I ran my hand down her arm, in a sort of stoking action and smiled at her. ”You’ve been through a lot today. No need to push yourself just try and rest a bit.” Speaking softly, I stayed sat by her side. Glancing up at Ash and Marty and focusing my attention on Roxas and her pup.
